Eco System Homes | Sustainable House Design Australia

Eco Systems Homes is an Australian business that provides complete eco home packages for people looking for a sustainable house design. They have done the research to take the guesswork out of eco friendly building. The team has researched the best eco friendly product options and combined them to create great eco friendly home designs. All their house designs have an energy efficiency rating of between 6 – 8 stars.

The building system they use means your home can be built in 10 weeks. By using steel post footings the house designs have less of an impact on the building site and mean they are appropriate for flat or sloping sites.

The Garden Shade is a green home design option from Eco System Homes which can include a 1kw grid connect solar power system, rain water tank, worm bins and a composting system.

Cross ventilation, high ceilings and maximum use of indoor and outdoor space have been incorporated into all the Eco System Homes designs.

Eco System Homes provide their eco friendly, sustainable home designs to accredited builders that they have trained and certified.
